Hi everyone!! My name is Grace Patnode and I’m a sophomore at NDSU this year, studying math education. I am so honored and excited to be your Housing Minister. Without a doubt, the best part of my time here at NDSU has been the bisonCatholic community. I am so pumped to continue growing this community with all of you. I was born and raised in Maple Grove, MN, and am the youngest of five. The Catholic faith has always been a large part of my life and education, especially when I was homeschooled. I’m my time here at NDSU my relationship with The Lord has increased tremendously and I know He has many more blessings in store for me and all of you. I love spending time with my friends, playing card games, reading, and playing with my dog. And I love coffee, country music, and hugs. I am looking forward to getting to know each of you more and continuing to grow in our faith alongside each other!
